question: does the sending station send the QSL card, the receiving station, or both?

Both. --Anthony Ivanoff 15:22, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Those hams collecting QSLs for an award (such as Worked All States) should send a QSL card and a return envelope (with postage!) to a new contact, and the new contact would reply with their QSL card. I don't QSL 100%, but I reply 100% to those who request a card, whether they include postage or not. It costs me about $0.85 to get a QSL card back ( .01 for my card, .37 for postage each way, and .05 for each envelope) in the US. Johngriswold 17:29, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
